Authorities have released the name of a man who was fatally injured Thursday evening when he was struck by Ford pickup in Euless.

Harry Cruz, 57, of Euless, was identified by the Tarrant County medical examiner's office.

He was struck at 7 p.m. Thursday while crossing in the 600 block of Texas 10 near Simmons Drive in southeast Euless, police said in a news release.

Cruz was hit by a truck driven by a 60-year-old man, who was westbound on Texas 10. The driver stopped and cooperated with the investigation, according to the news release.

Records from the medical examiner's office indicated that Cruz lived at an address on Texas 10, a tenth of a mile southwest of where he was hit by the truck.

The death was still under investigation, but no charges had been filed by Friday morning, according to the news release.
